Comment on Steam Next Fest is currently ongoing - which demos did you like/dislike?
metaStatic@kbin.social 9 months agoI was so fucking hyped for Homeworld 3.
I still am but I think I just discovered I'm no longer a day 1 gamer for anything.
50% off is the bare minimum now, holy shit that sticker shock is real.

I was just reading an article about Homeworld 3 and it sounds like I was mistaken about the online/skirmish thing. It sounds like it’s some sort of PvE coop mode or something. Still not my cup of tea. Still excited for the single player campaign.
I’m with you on the patient gaming. With few exceptions, purchasing the new hotness on day 1 means paying more for a worse experience. By the time a game goes on sale, the major bugs and balance issues will have all been fixed (if they’ll get fixed at all), so what’s the rush? Most gamers these days, myself included, have big enough backlogs that we’ll never be in the position of not having something fun available to play anyway.

I feel slightly obligated to buy it day one.

You can play it by yourself! It’s 3 missions in a row that are slightly different each time. You can play it coop or singleplayer.

That wasn’t clear to me either, I will try it again.
